5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, interesting and beautifully illustrated., 13 Nov 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Collecting Antique Maps: An Introduction to the History of Cartography (Hardcover)

This is an excellent revision of Potter's first book. I found it most informative and very readable. It manages to combine a general history of printed cartography with valuable information for collectors. It is an indispensable guide for both the more experienced map collector and those who are just starting to explore this fascinating area. A brilliant read.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is an old edition. Best to get the 2001 one instead, 15 Aug 2009

By	Green Climber (Dartmoor, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Country Life Book of Antique Maps: An Introduction to the History of Maps and How to Appreciate Them (Hardcover)

This is an old edition. Best to get the 2001 one instead. New edition has price guide and much more details of maps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Collecting Antique Maps, 3 Aug 2009

By	J. Garside "John" (Somerset, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is excellent in that it has a great deal of vital information for the collector presented in a really interesting way. It covers all the significant map makers, engravers, etc., and has an excellent price guide to give a clear idea of rarity and value. With many beautiful illustrations it is, in my view, the best book of its kind for anyone wishing to enter the world of antique maps.
